South Korea's New 2024 Digital Nomad Visa Explained
Episode 4: South Korea's New 2024 Digital Nomad Visa Explained
South Korea has launched a new digital nomad visa that grants access to the country for 2 years --one year, then extend for a second.
If you're in South Korea, digital nomads who already have an existing visa can switch from the visa exemption (B-1), tourist visa (B-2) or short-term stay visa (C-3).
South Korea's Digital Nomad Visa Requirements:
- You made $66,000 USD in the 2023 calendar year
- You're 18 years old and above
- You've been in the same industry for at least a year
- You work remotely --no taking jobs away from South Koreans
- You have approximately $100k health insurance coverage
Here's a health insurance comparison to make an educated decision for this digital nomad visa requirement: https://hobowithalaptop.com/nomad-insurance

South Korea Passport Bros take note! South Korea's birthrate is one of the lowest on the entire planet --I suspect this digital nomad visa is their government's way of cherry-picking the "right kind" of "economic migrant" to mingle with their lovely, conservative, girly, K-pop loving ladies.

The First Thing You Should ALWAYS Sell is Project Planning!
Whether you're a web designer, an interior decorator, an online coach, a financial advisor, or you're ghost-writing a book for someone --always sell planning, first and foremost.
Read the article source here: https://hobowithalaptop.com/start-online-marketing
In this video I share an excerpt from my 11,000 word guide to starting an online marketing agency where I discover the importance of NOT giving away your entire project plan for free in the initial sales proposal.
I discuss why it's so important, how to get around your clients desire to control the sales process, and how to gain more clients as a result of this onboarding tactic.
Separate project planning from the sales process and it's a total curveball --one that also builds client trust and confidence in your abilities right from the beginning.
Competition is fierce: Make your entire sales process about selling planning, not an end product, and your client will learn quickly why you're the most rational, cost effective, and least risky option for them to choose.
This sales strategy will set you apart and help you lock down more projects than ever before, while eliminating risk and saving time during the sales process.

Canada Became an Open-Air Prison, So I Became a Digital Nomad
Episode 1: Canada Became an Open-Air Prison, So I Became a Digital Nomad
In this first episode of the Hobo Speaks Podcast, Mike discusses one of his central reasons for leaving Canada on a one-way ticket to Thailand more than 10 years ago --Canada seemed to be turning into an open-air prison.
At first, the changes seemed innocuous. Over time, they became concerning. Today, Canada is a dystopian dumpster fire.
Perhaps the powers that be are manufacturing a situation where there is no 2024 federal election in the United States due to civil war.
Where do you want to be when the sh*t hits the fan?

Hobo Speaks - Digital Nomad Rumble - Podcast - Beta Release - Dec. 29 I launch! Hobo with a Laptop
Merry Christmas --I am coming in hard and fast on a December 29 2023 deadline to launch my first 3 episodes of the HOBO SPEAKS podcast, by Hobo with a Laptop --a blog I started over a decade ago.
https://hobowithalaptop.com
It's been 6 years since I made a video.
I'm ready.
Prepare for podcast episodes about how to make passive income and all the usual digital nomad crap from a guy that's been one for 20 years plus.
I'll cover some travel, cultural observations in the places I have lived, gear, passive income, sex and politics. Hobo with a Laptop isn't a travel blog --it's more about making money from wherever you want to be (that could be comfortably in your home town, too).
My blog though --that thing is solid; the blog is rated G for all audiences, the podcast is spicy. They are not the same.
Explore both.
